Artwork auctioned at ten times the upper estimate price

When the work Still Life Of Strawberries In An Earthenware Bowl, On A Stone Ledge by Adriaen Coorte was auctioned at Sothebys in Amsterdam in December 2009, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than ten times as high at EUR 1,520,750.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adriaen Coorte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly, which sold at auction in December 2014 for GBP 3,442,500.00 (€ 4,431,639.12).

Kunstwerk zum Zehnfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Still Life Of Strawberries In An Earthenware Bowl, On A Stone Ledge von Adriaen Coorte im Dezember 2009 bei Sothebys in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 1.520.750,00 mehr als zehnmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Adriaen Coorte mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly beobachtet, die im Dezember 2014 für GBP 3.442.500,00 (€ 4.431.639,12) versteigert wurde.
